Migration is more than movement across borders. It is a catalyst for regional integration, trade, economic cooperation, cultural exchange, and shared prosperity.

The Migration for Regional Integration Reporting Award recognises outstanding journalism that demonstrates how migration contributes to cross-border cooperation, social cohesion, economic development, and stronger regional connections across the #IGAD region.

Have you reported on migration, trade corridors, labour mobility, border communities, or regional integration?

Your story could be among the region's best.

This afternoon, I had the honor of representing the @IGGUganda and making remarks at the launch of the 3rd Edition of the Twende Zetu Butiama Pilgrimage Safari 2026 and the unveiling of the ACALAN AU Kiswahili Commission team.

The event highlighted the importance of cultural heritage, regional unity, and the growing role of Kiswahili in fostering African integration and shared identity.

I commend the organizers and all stakeholders championing initiatives that promote Pan-African collaboration, cultural exchange, and youth engagement across the continent.
